S&P futures, Nasdaq 100 futures, and Dow Jones futures all were pointing upward early in the day, according toCNBC.
The catalyst for the optimism was a Wednesday announcement from President Donald Trump that he considers the war with Iran nearly over, paired with an announcement that talks between Lebanon and Israel will take place Thursday.
